St. Rita's Thompson Weighs Transfer Amid Family Relocation
St. Rita Mustangs junior quarterback DeShawn Thompson is reportedly considering a transfer to a new school due to his family's impending relocation. The 7A program, which has struggled to find consistent quarterback play in recent years, would lose a key piece of its 2024 roster if Thompson were to leave. According to sources, Thompson is drawing interest from top programs in neighboring states, including Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. With only a handful of senior quarterbacks on the IHSA's 2024 roster, Thompson's departure would leave St. Rita scrambling to find a suitable replacement. The Mustangs' coaching staff is working to convince Thompson to stay, but the quarterback's mind remains open to exploring other options.
